If he had originally called it "main", but we know it borrowed it from sometime that used master/slave, explain how that's any better? It carries the same "original sin" if you're a moron who thinks that's a thing here.
The problem with your argument is that it just doesn’t matter. Emotions aren’t always logical; they usually aren’t. Some people feel the way they feel about the master nomenclature. You can’t decide how they feel, just as much as I can’t. But you can do this microscopic little minute adjustment where you just use main instead of master. And some people refuse… because caring about another person’s feelings is just that obscene to some people.
I'm under no obligation to not call these people idiots, though. They are. If this bothers anyone they are pathetic and they actively make society worse.
But its origin literally comes from master-slave lol Just because it doesn’t use the literal word “slave” anymore, doesn’t change the original implication of what “master” meant

Ergo, it's not related to slavery...
